Surat, the diamond and textile capital of India, follows IST. Uttarayan is celebrated with particular enthusiasm in the diamond city. Surat's dominant Jain community has a well-established tradition of seeking auspicious muhurtas for diamond trading, business openings, and major financial transactions.
Local Choghadiya Context in Surat
If festival preparation, a vrat, puja sankalp, travel, a shop opening, document signing, or a family decision starts inside Surat, use this city's table. No local observance is inferred without subject-bound evidence.
Surat coordinate facts for Choghadiya: 21.1702 degrees north; 72.8311 degrees east; state Gujarat; timezone Asia/Kolkata; sunrise range 6:01–7:22 AM. These facts define the city's daylight envelope, so do not copy a Shubh, Labh, Amrit, Char, Kaal, Rog, or Udveg slot from another city into Surat.
Surat Choghadiya belongs to the place where the first irreversible step begins. Living elsewhere in Gujarat, or dealing with someone in another city, does not change that starting location.
Surat's periods are derived from 21.1702 degrees north, 72.8311 degrees east, Asia/Kolkata, and the local sunrise range 6:01–7:22 AM. A table calculated for another city is therefore not interchangeable with this one.
Name the physical action first — payment, signature, journey, delivery, shop opening, or puja sankalp — then check that Surat period against Panchang and Rahu Kaal. This page makes no local landmark, custom, or observance claim without subject-bound evidence.
Which places near Surat can read these Choghadiya timings
Sachin lies 11 km south-east of Surat and sees sunrise −1m to 0m against it, so the first Choghadiya boundary in the table above moves by that much there. Across every place listed below the shift runs −3m to +1m and each of the eight daylight periods keeps the same length it has here, so the periods do not stretch — only the boundary moves.

How Surat Residents Use Choghadiya Today
Use the Surat table for the place where the first physical action begins. If the person lives in Gujarat but the journey, delivery, meeting, griha pravesh, or sankalp starts elsewhere, switch to that city's page before choosing the muhurat.
For Surat, read the table with the daylight span 6:01–7:22 AM, and the coordinates 21.1702 degrees north, 72.8311 degrees east. Those governed inputs separate a Surat Choghadiya decision from a generic all-India timing rule.
For expensive or irreversible work in Surat, treat Choghadiya as the quick filter and then verify the same date with Surat's Panchang, Rahu Kaal, and Shubh Muhurat pages. All three use the same local coordinate set.
Compare the selected Choghadiya with the day's Panchang and Rahu Kaal before fixing the final muhurat.
Nearby timing pages for Bhavnagar, Vadodara, Anand, Nashik, Thane, Srinagar are linked below because sunrise, sunset, and period boundaries can move even across short regional distances. Use those pages when the work starts outside Surat.
Other Gujarat city pages here include Ahmedabad, Vadodara, Rajkot, Gandhinagar, Jamnagar, Bhavnagar. Compare them only for route planning or family coordination; choose the final muhurat from the exact city where the first action begins.
Frequently Asked Questions
What time does Amrit Choghadiya start today in Surat?
Use the live Amrit row on this Surat page. It is calculated from सूरत / Surat, Gujarat, 21.1702 degrees north, 72.8311 degrees east, and the local sunrise range 6:01–7:22 AM, so the start shown here belongs to Surat only.
Is Surat Choghadiya different from nearby cities?
Yes. The table divides Surat's daylight and night into local periods. Another city in Gujarat can shift a boundary, so keep Surat's row only for work that starts in Surat.
How should I use Surat Choghadiya around a festival or vrat?
Use a supportive Surat period for the first step of the plan, then confirm the full day with Surat's Panchang when the ritual, vrat, shop opening, or journey has higher stakes. The page does not label an observance local without subject-bound sources.
Should I use Surat Choghadiya or Rahu Kaal first?
Use both for Surat. First choose a supportive Choghadiya period for the work, then check that the same Surat slot does not overlap Rahu Kaal.
